Description

Rock Art and the Wild Mind explores Mesolithic rock art across the Scandinavian peninsula, examining major sites at Alta, Namforsen and Vingen. This scholarly study focuses on hunters' rock art traditions and their depictions of terrestrial big game in dynamic interaction with the human realm. The book analyses the visual thematizations of the complex relationship between humans and large animals, identifying recurring compositional patterns termed motemes as expressions of the Mesolithic mind in action. Despite regional style variations, the rock art of Northern Europe reveals underlying thematic consistency that illuminates prehistoric visual culture and the cognitive world of Mesolithic peoples. Essential for understanding how ancient hunter-gatherers conceptualised and represented their relationship with the natural world through visual imagery.
